Sunday Post #313

 


The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated reviewer book blog, and is a post to recap my bookish and non-bookish things from the last week. I'm also linking up to The Sunday Salon hosted by Deb Nance @Readerbuzz.

Happy Sunday!

We had a nice trip to Cancun with family. The weather was beautiful. We went enjoyed the beach, a water park and I had a relaxing massage.  I enjoyed everything except the mosquito bites.

We got back late on Sunday and I had to work the next day.

Now I'm finishing up all the bookings for our trip to Italy which is just a couple of weeks away. I found a new house sitter and I'm so relived! 

Puzzles completed over the last two weeks (I didn't post last Sunday):

The panicle hydrangeas are almost done blooming and are turning pretty shades of pink on the ends. I cut a bunch and have them drying but also brought some in for arrangements:

It's been cold here so we've been having a fire going in the wood stove. I love it! So does Peanut!

It looks like a lot, but this is two weeks worth of reading. I had a bunch of time to kill on the plane ride back and forth from Cancun. A long flight each way!

After having a few duds a couple of weeks back I was thrilled to love everything I read. My favorite read was Sweep of the Heart! I just finished tonight so I'd be able to participate in our group chat tomorrow. I'm sad this is the last of the Innkeeper Chronicles so far! I forgot about that ending!
